Well to tell you the truth, i have read that to, but my girlfriend brought him home on surprise. the hawkfish has been in the tank for about 3 months, the shrimp have been in there for years. he has not messed with any of them. most of the shrimp are the same ssize if not bigger than him. but as he grows, i suppoose i will see what happens. hehe
